Arrived to turkey yesterday, Istanbul is a great city, large and tourist-friendly

The hotel we’re staying in [Angel's Home] is located near the Sultan Ahmet mosque, got very friendly staff, nice rooms and good facilities, Like free W-lan which i’m currently using :p

The breakfast [which is included] is really extended, not like a traditional breakfast, it has an open buffet and a lot of choice between foods & drinks.

Today we’ve took the ferry to Buyukada , a recommended tourist-attraction which is part of 5 islands near Istanbul [princess island]
A token costs 3 Lira from istanbul to there and will take about 1.5 hour, for 7 lira you can take a fast ferry which will get you there in 45 minutes.

In a lot of buildings i saw this [and other similiar] pictures:

I looked it up on the web, the portrait is from Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who, for my understanding, saved turkey from the Ottman Empire during Worldwar 1.

Mor about Atatürk on Wikipedia

Too Bad Turkey blocked Youtube since January 2008 (which is understandable) because journalists uploaded offensive videos about Atatürk.

This is it for today, tomorrow we’ll visit some museums.

Going on vacation to Turkey & Syria!
